The Magic of Minecraft's Music

  • Minecraft is a wonderful game for many reasons. You have unparalleled creative freedom, years of incredible developmental support and attentive community management, and a wonderfully positive-though sometimes childish-audience. However, the entire essence of the game is reliant on something every Minecraft player has grown to love. A constant that subtly narrates your gameplay, keeps you calm when a creeper kills you far from home, and provides the undertones that cement the heart and soul of Minecraft into each and every player.
    Of course, I’m talking about Minecraft’s genius soundtrack, composed by German Musician Daniel Rosenfeld, better known as C418. When he teamed up with Notch in the earliest days of Minecraft, he wasn’t established in the music scene. In many ways, he was still an amateur. But as Minecraft exploded, his competence was recognized. People absolutely loved it. But despite the recognition that the music got and has gotten over the years, I still believe the score is grossly underrated. Without the music, Minecraft just isn’t the same, which is something that can only be said about a handful of games. In fact, I believe Minecraft’s music is one of the absolute best in the history of video games, rivaling even legendary titles like Tetris and Mario. While people understand the quality, there’s much more to be uncovered beneath the surface, like how, even after hundreds of hours it doesn’t get old, how it perfectly creates an atmosphere for a game with an ambiguous atmosphere, and how it creates more nostalgia than any other soundtrack I’ve encountered. So, stay tuned, because today I’m going to walk through why, exactly, Minecraft’s music is so incredible.

      As you get older friends leave and family passes away. You get lonelier and lonelier as you get older as you find it harder and harder to connect to a changing and colder world. Nostalgia is very real guys because honestly those were the best years of your life.

      Nah. Imagine sitting there, old and withered, in front of the fireplace. You think of the long life you lived and all the friends you’ve lost. Then you hear it, Mice on Venus starts playing in back..you remember those blissful nights mining for those shiny blue diamonds with not a care in the world. You wish you could just go back to the time you placed your very first block. The song ends and the crackling of the fire takes it place. With a tear running down your face, you smile and go to sleep.

    We played, we tried
    We laughed, we cried
    We succeeded, we died
    We respawned and thrived
    From the zombies, to the endermen
    From the skeletons, to the pigmen
    From the spiders and creepers
    And from those annoying griefers
    From the biomes of jungles to sands
    To the mushrooms and other obscure lands
    From the snow and ice
    To the swamps which never looked too nice
    From moments with friends we’ll cherish
    From a time we hoped Herobrine would perish
    From the great animations
    To the TH-cam sensations
    Along with those musical incantations
    I thank Mojang for creating my childhood
    Much better than just ‘good’
    I think I speak for everyone here
    When I say this is not game of the year
    It’s the game of the century
    As it offered us with plenty
    And these memories will never leave
    Just like the thought of first playing as Steve
    So I say close your eyes
    And listen to the music with surprise
    As your memories of Minecraft were once apart
    But now can be fixed like a broken heart
    In order to find your memories core
    You must go back to the world of Minecraft once more
    And defeat the Ender Dragon one last time
    As the sweet sounds of your childhood begin to chime

I can't help but tear up every time i hear the song in its climax, as if the final chord itself is speaking: "And here you are, after all this time. Never forget how much of an effect this game has had on your life. You have all these memories, and you can still make more." The music as a whole invokes such a sense of nostalgia in me, and I'm sure I'm not alone. After all the time I have had with this game, I cannot help but feel peace and safety in myself. The music is just so powerful. We may now have Lena Raine making the newer music for Minecraft, but Minecraft would never had been Minecraft if it weren't for Daniel Rosenfeld.

    Minecraft’s soundtrack take me back to when I was a kid. I played on the PS3 with my little sister. We made so many worlds together. Each world held memories that both of us don’t remember now, but still remember us playing. Every single day would be us playing. I’d always be the one to mine and do the difficult things in a minecraft world, while she was the more laid back one. She built many things. As the years passed, she matured into a different person. I’m very glad for her, but Ive also matured. The more i grew, the more I became in love with games. Sometimes she’d ask if we could play, Id say no. I neglected her so many times she doesn’t even ask anymore. Now, I realize that I would regret my decisions as she does not want to play with me at all. Everytime I play by myself or with another person and the soundtrack plays, I get sad, knowing that our old days are over, and she’s maturing. I know it’s just a soundtrack, but it really gives me nostalgia. She was and always will be my minecraft partner. Please take this as a lesson to spend time with your siblings as soon as you can, and do not take it for granted.

    I don’t remember most of my life due to dissociative amnesia. The few childhood memories I do have are either from severe trauma, or my happiest memories which all consist of my time playing Minecraft. I had been playing since 2009 when grass block graphics consisted of very minimalistic and outlined green and brown hues that stuck true to the block feel. I had a rough childhood but I found my only comfort in playing Minecraft for hours on end with my online friends on teamspeak and Skype. The most nostalgic memories I have in my entire life date to around 2013-2015 or so. My entire childhood genuinely was Ssundee, BajanCanadian, Stampylonghead/nose, CaptainSparklez, etc. these creators will never understand truly how important what they have done is. This game and these people who worked thousands of hours on their content are the only reason I’m alive today :’). I’ve been through a lot in my life (though I am still quite young I’d like to think and have a lot to do) but truly I can’t appreciate where I am now in life without being so unbelievably grateful for this game. Every time I hear the music it makes me cry and cry and cry because I’m reminded of the the few moments of absolute peace I had in my otherwise unlivable life at the time. I never wish to return to my childhood, but I do wish so dearly to find something that makes me feel the way I felt when playing back then, again.
    I seriously can’t emphasize how important this soundtrack and this game and everything it embodies means to me. And I doubt I ever will be able to. Thank you for everything you have done for me Minecraft ❤

    Part of the genius to me is that we didn't really appreciate the music as much as we do now when we were kids, but it subtly wormed it's way into our heads anyway. Then, years later, we hear it and have all those memories of building with our friends, some of which we haven't heard from in years, and the loneliness aspect of the music kicks in full drive. There's so many layers to why this works for me that it's unreal

    When I listen to these songs, I can’t help miss the old days when I would play the legacy version with my older brother on our ps3. I was like 6 or 7, damn it feels so long ago. Danny is definitely my favourite. Overall most nostalgic, and I love the beginning part music wise, and the very ambient part right after that being unbelievably relaxing. I listen to this soundtrack when I need to relax or do homework because of how ambient and relaxing it is. Everything about the music is incredible, and I have all these years of enjoyment to support that.

The main track that I remember playing at that time was Aria Math. I didn’t even know it’s name until recently when it was stuck in my head and I went through the soundtracks until I recognized it. It just makes me so happy. I also remember subwoofer lullaby and haggstrom playing a lot. Good times. Great video

    Started playing in like 2010-2011 and the first three hit like trucks emotionally for me. Friends I no longer have but wish I had retained. Friends come and go but memories remain. Despite being painful, I always manage to be happy because I have those memories, despite how bittersweet they may be. Played it religiously until about 2018-2019 and I still dabble in it here and there but I can barely bear to play anymore due to becoming so depressed and sad after about an hour. I will always respect this game for all my life but it’s simply not the same for me anymore.

    to me, its one of those moments when you fishing outside of your base with your favourite person, watching the sun and the moon while having the scenery of the teamwork and hardwork you had building your home in the background. then the music plays, its so peaceful and such a lovely memory. i wish to keep it forever.

    Something else that really makes the Minecraft soundtrack amazing to me is that you never notice a change between the songs. Due to the similarity in tone and style of each of the tracks, each piece seems to lead into the next giving a sense of togetherness and overall smoothness. That is, for me, the best thing about them. The immersion is never broken as all you notice that really changes is the landscape around you and the game itself etc and so with no other distraction you can truly feel immersed in the game.

      Actually, I cry from the soundtrack when I realize that one day, I won't be around to listen to it anymore. And when that day comes, would I be proud of the life I lived, or wish I could go back to times when music let me smile, cry, and be angry, and know that those emotions are alright?

      I remebered on theese times when I was playing 1.4 as a kid and I was just building stuff and the music was playing. I didn't realised the music back in the days, but now I'm slowly remembering all the moments while this music was playing. A huge nostalgia 😭😭
